César

César R. G. is a hard working man who looks after his wife and children. He is 54 years old and lives in the county of Chancuyo, in the suburb of Ahuachapan. He has owned his own business for the past 3 years, which sells dairy and deli products, such as cheese, sausage, and cream among other things. Because his business is located in such a favorable location, he has many clients. As a result, Cesar is asking for a loan to invest in his business so that he can expand his offerings to include bread and soft drinks. For these reasons his greatest desire is to obtain a loan so that he can increase his inventory, offer a better service and increase his income, which will improve his family's finances.
